Pierson Ferdinand, a new law firm comprising over 130 lawyers—many, including the managing partners, from FisherBroyles—began operating last week.

Co-chairmen and founding partners of the new firm Michael Pierson and Joel Ferdinand spearheaded the spinoff firm after resigning from FisherBroyles in December 2023. They spoke to Legaltech News about their ambitions to move away from a traditional brick-and-mortar law firm, to one that is built from the ground up with technology in mind.
